San Diego, June 19, 2006 – Razer™, a leading manufacturer of high-end gaming peripherals, announced that the revolutionary Razer KraitTM, a mouse built for speed without compromising on the benchmark precision that Razer™ is known for, is now available for purchase for $39.99 at stores nationwide and online at www.razerzone.com

Featuring an ambidextrous ultra-light form factor, the Razer KraitTM is as sleek as its predecessors. It has three programmable Hyper-responseTM buttons (of up to 1,200 actions per minute) with fingertip grip for accurate and precise targeting control. With a killer 1600 dots per inch (dpi) and 6,500 scans per second optical engine powered by Razer PrecisionTM, the Razer KraitTM is built for reflex gameplay.

“Precision and performance of a mouse are crucial in this dog-frag-dog world,” said Robert “Razerguy” Krakoff, president, Razer Group. “The Razer KraitTM is our first mouse dedicated to the RTS and MMOG gaming community, and we guarantee that its prowess will hold gamers in great awe.”

As menacing as its namesake, the ambidextrous Razer KraitTM has a matte black chassis with an ominous glow from its non-slip side rails. The Razer Krait™ is designed especially for professional RTS and MMORPG gamers. It comes with the ultra-thin, non-tangle, gold-plated USB connector for maximum conductivity.
